Hello! My name is Kristine Eason. I have been teaching in New Hanover County for 28 years. I began my career in 1998 after graduating from UNCW with a degree in Elementary Education. I spent the first 9 years teaching at Dorothy B. Johnson. During that time, I taught 5th grade for 4 years and 1st grade for 5 years. I then transferred to Lake Forrest Academy where I served as the Transition Teacher at Codington Elementary. During this time, I supported children that had successfully completed the program at Lake Forest and where being mainstreamed back into the general education classroom. In 2010 I transferred to Anderson Elementary and began to teach 4th grade for the next 7 years. I then spent the next three years as the MTSS Interventionist and a Reading Teacher. The 4th year I was moved into the MTSS Lead position. I was then moved back into the classroom where I taught 1st grade for three years. This past year I was asked to be the Early Literacy Facilitator. As the Early Literacy Facilitator, my main job is to work closely with the K-3 teachers to ensure that they are delivering effective literacy instruction.
On a more personal note, I am married to my wonderful husband Chris. We have two amazing boys, Zac, 27 and Noah, 19. We also have an adorable Mini Goldendoodle named Lily. I love to go to the beach, shop, travel and read.
